Player Notes
November 3, 2009
David Ortiz claimed on Tuesday to have "another three or four good years in me," according to the Boston Herald.

Our View:He will be in the final year of four-year contract next season, and looking for a new deal at the age of 35. He has said he wants to end his career in Boston. Looking at his .238 average from last season, he may have already. It's impossible to believe he will have another 28 homer, 99 RBI campaign in 2010 if he doesn't get his average back near his career level of .282.
October 18, 2009
In an effort to stave off another epic, season-beginning slump, David Ortiz has pledged to get into better shape this offseason, according to the Boston Herald.

Our View:He is going to spend a good chunk of his offseason at Athletes' Performance in Tempe, Arizona. It could enhance his early season performance in 2010, but maybe not as much as some of his past methods.
October 11, 2009
David Ortiz finished the ALDS 1-for-12 with four strikeouts as the Red Sox got swept by the Angels.

Our View:After a wretched start to the season, Ortiz got things going in the second half to put up somewhat respectable numbers. However, he was awful in the postseason.
October 2, 2009
David Ortiz is out of Friday's lineup against Cleveland, according to the Boston Globe.

Our View:Ortiz is not nursing an injury, and skipper Terry Francona decided to just give him a day off, namely against opposing lefty Jeremy Sowers. Mike Lowell will serve in the DH role.
September 25, 2009
David Ortiz went 1-for-4 with three RBI in tonight's 9-5 loss at rival New York. He hit a two-run homer off Joba Chamberlain.

Our View:Ortiz is hot in the power department, as he crushed a homer in each of his last three games. He has 27 homers for 2009.
